Letter from Josh 12 April 2010



hey family!

before i forget to say it,dad dont send the confernce outline thing. by the time it gets here we will have the ensign with the full version of all the talks.
anyways, this week has been good. nothing too new really. on thursday my companion and i went to an all you can eat ribs restoraunt and it was glorious. i ate 15 half-racks mashed potaoes and onion rings. needless to say i was stuffed. it hurt to walk the rest of the night. and i was only two half racks short of the record. i was angry at myself for not getting the record. . . maybe next time.
the work is going well. we have a baptism coming up at the end of the month and i am really excited for it. her name is Majuma. during the week she had her old pastor come and talk to her and tell her a bunch f rediculous stuff about the church. i guess he had a whole slide shpw presentation for her. on one of the slides he had a picture of the baptismal font in the temple and then told her that we go in circles around it dancing and at the end we sacrifice somebody by drowning them in the font. she said up to that point she was getting confused, but when he said that she started laughing because it sounded so stupid to her, which made the pastor really angry, and then she asked the pastor to leave because she only had time to listen to the truth. shes awesome. i guess her daughter was there while the pastor gave the presentation and they both couldnt stop giggling while they told us some of the stuff he said.
i realy enjoyed geting letters from mike and meg this week. i like knowing what my family is up too. megan isnt so bad, but my other siblings need some help. i amhappy to see that mike has started repenting.
mom, i dont know if you have done anyting with my college stuff, and i knowits really not fair to have you doing it but i dont know how to do it from here and i dont want to have to miss that semester when i get home. sorry for the inconvenience, i know its a lot of tedious type of things, but i wouldreally apreciate it.
i love you all sooooooooo much. and i miss you too. i hope you are having a wonderfull time at home with all of your various activities. i know the church is true and i know that god loves each and every one of us. i know that christ suffered and died for ME and for YOU so that we could have the opportunity to repent and go back and live with him andour heavenly father after this life. i love you. more than that all you can eat rib place. have an awesome week!

Love,
Elder Harris
